Porn Band Videos Nekkid Bass Player On Westboro Baptist Church’s Lawn, Shocking No One

In a fortuitous conjunction of publicity whores, Get Shot!, a California band billing itself as “the sleaziest punk band in the world,” has shot a two-minute video of its bass player lying on a blanket and masturbating on the lawn of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas — the “God Hates Fags/America/Puppies” loonies. Internet reaction appears to span the entire range from “ha-ha” to “meh.” Someone, somewhere was probably shocked, although the allegation has yet to be proved.

“The Phelps family and Westboro Baptist Church are ridiculous and do nothing except spread hate and cause controversy. As a bisexual woman and the bass player of a ridiculous punk band, I wanted to spread my legs and cause controversy.”

Lush’s greatest dreams have apparently been realized, as the band’s “porn website” — a sort of Suicide Girls clone — was occasionally shut down by heavy traffic Friday after Gawker covered the video stunt.
